This is then next installment of my list.
Reflection Eternal - Talib Kweli & Dj Hi-Tek
Before I say anything about them as a group I'll start by saying DJ Hi-Tek makes Talib better.
When I got put on to hip hop the was out side of major labels I found Rawkus, this was before the Blackstarr album dropped. And I caught on tho the first Soundbombing Compilation and the First Lyricist Lounge. In there I peeped tracks by a group called Reflection Eternal and I was hooked!
The beats were fresh and the MC was real dope. I hadn't heard something like that in a while.
Then Blackstarr dropped CLASSIC and the First RE album Train of Thought Dropped again Classic.
But then something weird happend on Quality Talib started to stray away from Hi-Tek and began working with other producers, while Quality was ok it wasn't train of thought. And neither was The Beautiful Stuggle. While Talib was still fresh with the rhymes the songs directions didn't hit me something was missing like something organc was missing. Feel me. Now Eardrum was DOPE but still not Train of Thought. Talib was missing what Hi-Tek brought to the table for him
While this was going on Hi-Tek began getting a bigger name for him self working with the Aftermath team and doing some work with G-Unit, 50 and Dre and them. Nothing crazy but still collection a check. He also dropped 3 Hi-Technology albums. 1&2 being the better ones. But no one rock a Hi-Tek beat like Talib does.
Now its 2009 and they gonna do a new RE album and I cant wait its almost 10 years long overdue.
Thats why the made the list the made some real heat! that worked for me,,
